El proceso creativo tiene más que ver con la percepción que con el talento y requiere de que primero percibamos el mundo tal y como es antes de poderlo representar en alguna forma o utilizarlo como plataforma para la expresión. La meditación nos ayuda en este proceso a clarificar nuestras percepciones, relajando nuestro monólogo implacable y desvelando la fuente de la creatividad. A través de la meditación también aprendemos a descansar en el ‘punto de partida’ un estado de atención plena y conciencia donde nuestra mente, cuerpo y entorno están sincronizados y la autoexpresión se puede transformar en expresión pura.
